The Roofing Company Edmonton Businesses & Families Rely On

As an active member of the Edmonton North chapter of the AARA, Alberta’s roofing trade association, Markit Roofing works to the same standards the province’s leading contractors set for themselves. That local accountability is a big reason owners across Edmonton, including Heritage Valley and Highlands, choose us as their roofing company over crews that show up after a storm and leave town once the season ends. Our Red Seal installers are Markit employees, so the roofer who assesses your home is backed by the same team that completes the work and honours the warranty years later.

Each assessment covers shingles, decking, attic insulation, ventilation, and eavestroughs, because in Edmonton a roof problem often starts inside the attic rather than on the surface. You receive a clear written estimate that ranks repairs by urgency and lists the materials we plan to use. Homeowners who have compared several Edmonton roofers tell us the difference is simple: straight answers, in-house crews, and a finished roof that matches the estimate they signed.

Edmonton Roofers That Build for the Deep Freeze & Heavy Snow

Edmonton winters are longer and colder than in most Canadian cities, with stretches below minus 30°C and snow that can sit on a roof for months. That weight, combined with warm air escaping the living space, creates the ice dams that force meltwater back under shingles and into ceilings. Markit Roofing approaches every project the way experienced roofing contractors in Edmonton should, starting with the attic. We balance intake and exhaust ventilation, check insulation depth, and seal gaps around light fixtures and bathroom fans to keep the roof deck cold and even. On the surface, we install ice and water shield well past the exterior wall line, along valleys and around every penetration. Cold-weather installs follow manufacturer procedures, including hand-sealing shingles when temperatures are too low for the factory strips to bond on their own. This winter-first approach runs through all of our roofing services in Edmonton, including Windermere and Summerside, from small repairs to complete new roof systems.

Ice Dam and Winter Roof Repair

Icicles along the eaves may look harmless, but in Edmonton they usually point to an ice dam that is holding back meltwater on the roof. When that water finds a gap, it seeps under shingles and shows up as stained drywall, wet insulation, or peeling paint along exterior walls. Markit Roofing handles ice dam roof repair in Edmonton by fixing the damage and addressing the cause. Our crews replace soaked underlayment and damaged shingles, extend ice and water shield where it falls short, and repair eavestroughs that have pulled away under the weight of ice. In the attic, we look for blocked soffit vents, thin insulation, and warm-air leaks that heat the roof deck unevenly and keep the cycle going. Because Edmonton’s roofing season is short, our winter roof repair service is set up to work safely in cold conditions, with COR-certified safety practices on icy surfaces. The goal is a roof that sheds snow evenly instead of turning each thaw into another leak inside your home.

Full Roof Replacement Projects

Edmonton’s freeze-thaw swings in spring and fall age a roof faster than many owners expect. Shingles lose flexibility, nails back out, and the sealant bond between courses breaks down, until repairs no longer hold. Markit Roofing completes roof replacements in Edmonton with IKO- and Firestone-accredited installers who follow each manufacturer’s cold-climate specifications, so your warranty stays valid. Each tear-off goes to the bare deck, where we replace soft sheathing before installing ice and water shield, synthetic underlayment, new drip edge, step flashing, and properly sized roof vents. You can choose architectural asphalt shingles, impact-resistant shingles for extra hail protection, or standing seam metal, which sheds heavy snow quickly and suits Edmonton’s long winters. Your estimate lists exact products before work begins. As a local roofing company serving Edmonton, including Capilano and Bonnie Doon, we protect your yard, clear every nail with magnetic sweepers, and review the completed roof with you on site.

Roof Leak Repair & Emergencies

In Edmonton, roof leaks tend to appear at the worst moments: a mid-winter thaw, a spring melt, or a summer thunderstorm that drops heavy rain in minutes. Our emergency roof repair in Edmonton focuses on one job: stopping water before it spreads through insulation and drywall. Depending on the situation, our crew may tarp exposed sections, replace torn or missing shingles, or reseal flashing lifted by snow and ice. Once the roof is secure, our roof leak repair team tracks the water to its true entry point. In cold weather, that is often a frost buildup in the attic, a failed pipe boot, or a gap in ice and water shield, not a hole directly above the ceiling stain. We photograph the source, explain what failed, and outline a permanent fix with a written price. For a sudden leak, the fastest way to limit repair costs is an accurate diagnosis the first time, which is exactly what our roofers are trained to deliver, even in snow, wind, and freezing rain.

Commercial & Flat Roof Systems

Edmonton has a large base of warehouses, shops, strip malls and apartment buildings with flat or low-slope roofs, and each one carries the full weight of winter snow. For these properties, our residential and commercial roofing in Edmonton covers SBS, TPO, EPDM, and PVC membranes matched to each building’s use and budget. National Torch Safety-trained crews handle every torch-applied job, which is required on occupied buildings and roofs with rooftop equipment. For flat roof repair in Edmonton, we locate ponding water, split seams, damaged parapet flashing, and blocked drains, then fix the drainage so meltwater leaves the roof during spring thaw instead of refreezing in place. Where a full commercial roof replacement is needed, tapered insulation creates positive slope and lowers heating costs. Property managers can book seasonal inspections before and after winter with written photo reports, and our commercial emergency roof repair team responds day or night when leaks strike.

Hail & Storm Insurance Support

Summer storms across the Edmonton region can bring hail, high winds, and heavy rain within a single afternoon, leaving damage that is hard to see from the ground. With our roof insurance claim help in Edmonton, homeowners get clear evidence and a trusted contractor on their side. We complete a full hail damage roof inspection, checking shingles, ridge caps, vents, flashing, eavestroughs, and siding for impact marks, and then prepare a written report with labelled photos for your insurer. Our roofer can meet the adjuster on site to show granule loss, split ridge caps, and hail spatter marks that are easy to overlook. We then compare the adjuster’s scope with our own findings and point out any gaps, such as missed slopes, vents, or eavestrough sections, so you can question them before the claim is settled. After approval, our in-house Red Seal crew completes the agreed work. You usually choose the contractor, not your insurer, and we keep you informed throughout.
